Answer 3

I had this same question, and couldn't find a good answer anywhere. There were a few more confounding factors with mine. I was trying to set up an SSIS package that runs on a server, and have it run a batch file based on results the package received from a SQL query.

To do that I had to use a Foreach Loop Package, and then an Execute Process Task within it. Then I had to reference where the command line utility was on the server and then have my executable start with a "/c" (I started with a "/k" but that would fail all the time, truth be told I don't know what "/c" or "/k" do with CMD)

Then have my batch files be all in the WorkingDirectory. Then... Tada! it actually worked!
